[aur-general] AUR package with prebuilt packages
by Paul Finkelshteyn 12 Aug '19

12 Aug '19

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 Hi folks, As kodi-devel-bin take almost forever to build I've created github https://github.com/asm0dey/arch-kodi-devel-builder/ with pre-built packages. Now I want to create AUR packages which will be able to install these binary packages. As you can see I have some knowledge on how to maintain packages: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/?SeB=m&K=asm0dey but in this concrete situation I have no any idea on how to create packages. Of course I can't just use these packages in source field because they have their own dependencies. Also I think I can't just install them inside build or package phase… So question is: is there any recommended way to do what I want?

by Rhys Perry 05 Aug '19

I have a package (i3-gaps-rounded) and would like to rename it to i3-gaps-rounded-git in order to comply with standards. What would I have to add to the PKGBUILD of each packages in order to force people who have installed i3-gaps-rounded to move to i3-gaps-rounded-git?

[aur-general] Virtualbox quite suddenly can't access shared folder anymore
by Ralf Mardorf 28 Jul '19

28 Jul '19

Hi, on 2019-07-25 systemd-udev-reload.hook was running, let alone that I rebooted, before later that day, I used a shared folder by a Windows 7 guest, without experiencing an issue. I don't notice a related upgrade since then, systemd-udev-reload.hook wasn't running anymore, but I rebooted in the meantime. If I try to use a shared folder today, Windows 7 crashes and the VirtualBox log mentions "Failed to open "/dev/vboxdrvu", errno=13, rc=VERR_VM_DRIVER_NOT_ACCESSIBLE". I tried with two kernels. I don't know if it is related to udev at all. $ pacman -Q virtualbox-bin virtualbox-bin 6.0.10-1 $ ls -hAld /dev/vbox* crw------- 1 root root 10, 56 Jul 27 13:00 /dev/vboxdrv crw------- 1 root root 10, 55 Jul 27 13:00 /dev/vboxdrvu crw------- 1 root root 10, 54 Jul 27 13:00 /dev/vboxnetctl drwxr-x--- 3 root vboxusers 60 Jul 27 13:00 /dev/vboxusb As soon as possible, I need to use the guest with a shared folder again, but I don't have a clue how to fix the issue. Unfortunately https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/virtualbox-bin/ is down due to maintenance. Regards, Ralf

[aur-general] Advise on updating/uploading binary package
by Oon-Ee Ng 18 Jul '19

18 Jul '19

I've been using cin-git for a while (which draws on cinelerra-gg project). For those who are unfamiliar, there's the 'original' (old and out-of-date) cinelerra, and a newer cinelerra-heroine, and the most popular one is cinelerra-gg. The 'cin-bin' PKGBUILD on AUR points to the original website, and is practically useless in an up-to-date Arch system. For convenience (and because recently some problems have been happening with cin-git), I want to upload a binary verison of cinelerra-gg. As cin-bin is currently quite useless (and IMO the -gg project is the real heir of the cinelerra heritage), is there any reason I shouldn't adopt it and update it to point to cinelerra-gg binary package?

[aur-general] Trouble receiving email to reset password
by Etienne Wan 17 Jul '19

17 Jul '19

Hello, I had an account with the username etiennewan for some months now. I tried to login today but was not able to, so tried to send a reset email to the email address the account was registered with, but I did not receive anything. I signed up a new account today with the same username (and it was accepted) and this email address, but I did not receive any email to set my password. Can you help me on this ? Thank you in advance, etiennewan
